Emergency Calls

IMPORTANT!

This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless and landline networks as well as user-pro- grammed functions which can not guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any wireless phone for essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies).

Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone must be switched on and in a service area with adequate signal strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless phone net- works or when certain network services and/or phone features are in use. Check with local service providers.

Making an Emergency Call

1.If the phone is not on, switch it on

2.Press the ôkey to ready the phone for calls. (Press it twice if there are still digits on the display.)

3.Key in the emergency number for your present location (e.g. 911 or other official emergency number). Emergency numbers vary by location.

4.Press ó

If certain features are in use (keyguard, restrict calls, etc.), you may first need to turn those features off before you can make an emergency call. Consult this document and your local cellular service provider.

When making an emergency call, remember to give all the ne- cessary information as accurately as possible. Remember that your wireless phone may be the only means of communication at the scene of an accident - do not cut off the call until given permission to do so.
